缘督以为经:对《贵妇人画像》的庄子式阐释

An Accordance With the Central Element in the Way:A Zhuangzi's Interpretation of the Portrait of Lady

本文试图运用庄子"缘督以为经"的人生观分析《贵妇人画像》中伊莎贝尔·阿切尔的人生选择。庄子的"无情"观、"无用之用"观和寓言"庖丁解牛"具体体现了"缘督以为经"思想。本文首先用庄子的"无情"观分析了伊莎贝尔片面追求艺术的唯美主义思想对其人生的负面作用;然后用庄子"无用之用"观分析了财产和激情对伊莎贝尔的"无用"价值;最后用寓言"庖丁解牛"分析了她回归无爱婚姻的原因在于扭曲个性以回避现实的矛盾,以寄托母爱的方式实现其自然人生。
